0:00Most new wholesalers stall because they never pick one list and work it. Here's a simple week. One list, start to finish.

0:09Day one. Pick one county and one kind of seller. Pre-foreclosure, tax suits, probate, or tired landlords. These come from county records, so every lead has a real reason to sell.

0:23Day two. Stack two signals. Behind on taxes and facing foreclosure. Sort by score, then save the search. It keeps finding new matches, so your list never goes stale.

0:36Day three. Put your best twenty-five in a campaign and skip trace them. Twenty cents a lead. You pay once per owner, and lists of twenty-five or more get checked against Do-Not-Call.

0:49Day four. Call. The numbers are in My Leads, and anything you shouldn't call is flagged red. Skip those.

0:58Day five. Mail the ones who didn't pick up. Every owner gets their own message. First class, a dollar forty-nine a card.

1:09Day six. Everyone you traced is already in your pipeline. Move them as you talk. Contacted, offer sent, under contract. Nobody falls through.

1:21Day seven. Line up your buyers before you need them. These cash buyers are verified from the deed. Then run the wholesale calculator, so you know your maximum offer before you make one.

1:36Then do it again next week. Browse free at smartpropleads dot com.
